    LOL.....if trump was not in there somehow there would not be these mental gymnastics to NOT release them. Let's see this conspiracy theory through to the end.............................put all the files in one room, let 5 gop members and 5 Dems go through them and tell us who paid Epstein billions of dollars. They should get to see all the pics and videos and if there is nothing there, they can tell us. blodi, kush and the lot of them are lying now or lying then........................after campaigning for this for so many years, your sheeples need to know

    Republicans are better at politics than Democrats

    Dem base is more divided.

    Democrat base also has a significant portion that holds their leaders accountable

    Right now Republicans are winning

    I think they are pushing too far. Way too far

    There is going to be violence and disruption in this country the likes we haven't seen since the civil rights movement and it's because of Republicans greedy pursuit of power.

    Imo the balance has been broken

    Once the economic dam breaks it's going to be bad.

    Hillary was corrupt, Biden was corrupt... But not in the brazen way Trump is. We elected a dude with an obvious lack of character, someone who you would let go as a friend . We knew even knew before his first term some of the things he said and thought about women. How many times has he been divorced? How many businesses has he failed with ?

    Some people like him for his aggressiveness and other Republicans "held their nose" so to speak because they thought the Democratic candidate was worse.

    I feel , undoubtedly at this point, that our 2 party system has failed and that our democracy will not be able to respond adequately to the challenges that we will face .

    The Republican party may appear strong , they may be passing their agenda and blocking Democrats from doing anything .

    The publics faith in Washington was already down the drain

    This Epstein manuevering , masked ice agents , unpredictable Tariffs, and a general tone of disrespect from Trump have flushed whatever goodwill was left.

    Idk what will happen to the US , but I don't think it will be good

    Countries that go this far towards authoritarianism generally don't go back

    The Brown Shirts of the Trump Regime are doing all they can to kiss the orange man's butt, and prove what loyal little spineless puppets they are. Whatever you want Sir., whatever the cost, we will vote it through. :eek:

    Democrats say GOP 'snuck in' renaming Kennedy Center Opera House for Melania Trump - ABC News

    House Republicans have advanced a proposal to rename the Kennedy Center's Opera House, one of the center's major theaters, the “First Lady Melania Trump Opera House.”

    It's the latest move by Republicans and the White House to turn the traditionally bipartisan Kennedy Center in a more Trumpian direction, after President Donald Trump fired board members appointed by former President Joe Biden and replaced them with his own supporters.

    “The Republicans have now given the president six times the normal amount of money to run the Kennedy Center, carte blanche over who will be on the board, and how different parts of the Kennedy Center -- perhaps the whole Kennedy Center itself -- will be named, and this amendment confirms that,”

    Then again, it's just one more day of crazy stuff coming from the Republicans this week. From the chemtrail conspiracies to Mark of the Beast claims, to Trump and his latest election conspiracy and stolen election claims about Obama the Traitor. It just kills him to this day that he lost to a black man and to the man he called Sleepy Joe Biden. He will go to his death screaming that he's been the victim, no matter what the truth is. Poor Donnie. Life's so unfair when you lose, even when you lie, cheat, and steal to try and get what you want.

    But, for the Republican Party the time is now. It's an all out effort to start deflecting left and right with all their might to distract from from the Epstein claims and Trump's approval ratings sinking lower and lower and lower.
